Thread Name: Tune Req: Name That Tune!
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Name That Tune!
Ok. You're all probably going to think I've lost my faculties but the mystery song vaguely reminds me of an Irish tune on one of my many CD's which has a title relating to an Irish man's name but I can't remember what it is.
It is, however, the same tune as For He's a Jolly Good Fellow. Searching for that tune leads me to an old French song Malbrough s'en va-t-en guerre (translation: Marlborough is Going Off to War).
I've looked through my Irish music tracks but I'm having trouble remembering which one is the right one.
It's mostly the second part of the mystery tune which reminds me of the song.
